DOOR-HOOK.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Aug. 30, 1921.

Application filed August 3, 1920. Serial No. 400,945.

This invention relates to door hooks and' The above and other objects of my invention will be in part described and in part understood from the following descri tion of the present preferred embodiment o my invention as illustrated in the accompanying drawings wherein:

Figure 1, is a front elevational view of a hook constructed in accordance with my invention illustrating the application of th same.

Fig. 2, is a cross-sectional view taken on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1 and looking in the direction of the arrow, and

Fig. 3, is a vertical sectional view taken on the line 3-3 of Fig. 1 and looking in the direction of the arrow.

In the drawings, in order to illustrate the application of my invention a portion of a door jainb l is shown and also a portion of a screen door 2.

My invention consists of a hook generally designated 3 which is formed from a single strand of wire one end 4 thereof comprising the bill of the hook, and the opposite end 5 looped into a substantially ovoidal shape providing an operating handle. The strand is convoluted as indicated at 6, approximately midway the handle 5, and bill 41: so as to provide a bearing through which a pivot pin 7 is passed.

One method of use of the invention as shown in the drawings is to provide an elongated slot 8 in the door sash, at any-desired point, and to arrange the hook therethrough in such a manner that the convolution 3 is housed within the slot following which the pivot pin? is driven through the lateral margin of the door, through the convolution 6 and ultimately into the opposite wall of said slot. As shown to advantage in Figs. 1 and 3 the pivot pin is sufficiently spaced from theterminals of the slot to permit proper leverage of the hook. An eye bolt 9 is in this instance engaged with the door jamb 1 adapted for the reception of the bill of the hook.

Although I have herein illustrated the preferred manner of use of this invention it is nevertheless to be understood that the hook is capable of a variety of uses and I therefore do not wish to be limited by this single specific illustration.

What I claim is:

1. A door hook including a strand of metal one end of which is formed to provide a hasp and the opposite end formed to provide a handle, an intermediate portion of. said strand being convoluted for engagement with the door.

2. In combination with a door having an opening therethrough and a pin intersecting the opening, a strand of wire extended into said opening and convoluted on the pivot pin, one end of the strand being extended beyond one face of the door and formed to provide a hasp, the opposite end being extended beyond the opposite face of the door and formed to provide a handle by which the strand is rocked on said pin.

In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two-witnesses.

LILLIAN RANDAZZO.
